    For a graphic novel, this took forever to read. The entire first half of the book felt like a total slog because nothing was happening, it was just a story of these kids and their magical adventures. Eventually, the tone does shift woth some pretty dark themes and intense plot points, but immediately after, it goes straight back to silly, fun adventures as if nothing even happened. If it wasn't for my book club, I definitely wouldn't have picked up this book as I'm really not a fan of stories of silly childish romances. I read this on Webtoon, and the writing was pretty brutal to get through due to lack of editing.

    Moments in a book that feel like the author’s barely disguised fetish

    What are moments in books that feel like they are juuust a little too oddly specific and detailed in a way that makes you slightly pause and go “… this gotta be a sex thing” even though on the surface it really isn’t?

    title card reading: tonight’s episode: the writer’s barely disguised fetish

    Not really just a kink that is supposed to be recognised as such but smth a bit more hidden. Maybe it even seems like the author themself didnt realise that was why they put it in

    Common examples that fit this imo are the many, many romance authors who clearly have a patriarchy fetish + the many, many horror authors who have a fetish for having a woman being violated

  • The most devastating line

    Do you remember some line in a book that sent you into emotional turmoil and made you question the whole book, your life and your sanity?

    For me, it was "Reader, I married him." Like girl why? Why did you do that? Why do you need this evil manipulative waste of space? Why do you hate yourself? Why? 😭😭😭😭
